    I don’t know why, but every time I edit an Event post, the plugin “All-in-One Event Calendar Extended Views by Time.ly” get deactivated automatically.

    It happen since the last main plugin’s update (version 2.5.44).

    At the time, I fixed by this code in my functions.php

    #FIX AIO Event Calendar Extended Views automatically disable itself
if ( !is_plugin_active( 'all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views/all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views.php' ) ) {
	activate_plugin('all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views/all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views.php');
}

    Is a normal behaviour? Is there a solution?

    My event calendar was disabled over 2 weeks ago and there was no response to my question in this forum or by email so I moved on to another plugin. Unfortunately I had to lose my entire history of past events as a result.

    I am having the same problem, my extended view plugin keeps deactivating and I’m not getting a response from support.

    Just in case you’re not aware, you have to pay for extended views now. If you haven’t paid the annual fee, it won’t work anymore. I hope this helps with your frustration, if not your bank account. 🙂

    Thanks @great-taste, I think that’s exactly like your explanation.
    However the main plugin doesn’t inform properly about this required-payment or license, it simply disable the extension without any messagge.
    I think that a little notice might be appreciated, just to have a time to notify the customer about this change and give to him the possibility to pick a choice about.
    By the way, I managed this issue quickly (by re-activating the extension dinamically) and now I’m going to develop a custom event manager.

    I think that Time.ly doesn’t applied the right way to upgrade his products conditions and they doesn’t inform properly about the changes, making blank sections from one day to another on websites who use this extension.

    It’s legit to require a payment, but not if you make my time waste, in order to understand which change you done and without repling to the questions.

    According to their site I paid for one year on 2019-05-03. To my math, I didn’t get my year but it would be nice if someone would respond and let us know the facts about what’s up???

    I am having this issue on 2 out of three websites with the plugins of time.ly
    And I use a payed plugin where it doesn’t work and a free one wheere it works fine……
    I used the code of hardweb on one of the sites where extended views are deactivated all the time. That is a multisite. On the main site the code works excellent. When extended views are deativated the code ativates it immediately. However, the code, creates another issue for me in multisite. The main site is shown and works, but the eight subsites disappear. On the frontend as well as on the backend, just white screens. When I delete the code snippet, the subsites appear again, but without extended view. Pitty.
    Time.ly doesn’t repond to questions or whatever.

    Hi @kinsella55 you could try with this:

    #FIX AIO Event Calendar Extended Views automatically disable itself
add_action('init', 'hw_aioev_reactivate');
function hw_aioev_reactivate() {
if ( !is_plugin_active( 'all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views/all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views.php' ) ) {
	activate_plugin('all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views/all-in-one-event-calendar-extended-views.php');
}
}

    Then tell me if it work!
    I don’t have an subsites network to test it immediatly. Sorry.

    Thank you for your effort Hardweb. Great.
    But unfortunately it doesn’t change anything. The subsites immediately disappeared again after activating your code.
    Awesome that you’re trying to help. Time.ly should hire you, because I am under the impression they don;t know anymore what they are doing.

    @kinsella55 Your welcome. This is a community whithin people should help others with pleasure.
    I really would know more about your issue, it’s very strange that my code broke your subsites, there shouldn’t a reason for that behaviour.

    Please, can you enable debug constants and check the error logs? And then tell me if there’s something which can help to understand better the things.
    This could improve my knowledge on how WP multisite work.
    Thanks

    A miracle!!!!!
    I retried to produce a log file. And guess what? Now it does work. It might that I made a mistake on Thursday with copy-paste.
    You’re a wizard hardweb.
    You cannot imagine what kind of solution this is for my multisite project. Thanx a 1000 times. 🙂

    Hi @kinsella55 I’m glad to know you fixed your issue with my code snippet. It means that it work fine at all! However I suggest to all the people are matching this issues, to think and search for a good alternative quickly! 😉👍

    Obviusly I hope Time.ly still “alive” and it can give us more informations about. Expecially for them which paid the extension but anyway they get the issues.

    Sorry to be a know nothing but What do you do with the code? Where do you put it?

    @soapm this code would be put on your theme function.php file, and it run to activate the extension plugin only if it’s inactive, so it bypass the issue that main plugin introduced in the last updates.

    @giangel84
    Thnx again. It is still working. 🙂
    I have been looking for alternatives for almost a year now. The best solution I found in all that time is yours.
    Are you afraid that the guys of Time.ly will block this one too in the future?
    I think this one works excellent. In less than a second the plugin is reactivated again. Wonderful.
    The only alternative which would be better is that the extended view plugin doesn’t deativate itself anymore, but I’m afraid the guys of Time.ly went away for a lifetime vacation.
    Even my payed accounts don’t work and I have an uptime of my server of 99,6%.
    Last 6 mponths their support doesn’t even respond anymore. I have given them up a long time ago.
    I have all the faith I can have in your solution.
